Art is being perceived in a different context and level of understanding. The way children perceived an art is far more different from the way an adult person would see and appreciate an art piece. Every child has a deep sense of appreciation of what art is and could be vividly captured by the different hues of colours and creatures of imaginations. Art for children is the realization of their fantasies; it is just seeing their dreams coming to life. Vivid colours would capture the attention of children. Being an illustrator for children would be a ride of having fun. It is just like living in the realm of colours and happy world of children. The drama hues of colours would not have any place in the world of art for children. The mixing of colours should signify the happy moments of life. Children are captivated by the play of colours that would make them feel the happiness that this world would give. …show more content…
The vivid illustrations would be impressed in their minds and would eventually attract them to read a book or an article. Even you as an adult would see how the illustrations on children's books could have a great impact on the mind of your child. It is their first way of understanding things. The words in a book would not bear any significance in their young minds. It is only through the illustrations that the children would be able to get hooked to a book then eventually, it will arouse their curiosity and most likely, they would be able to read the words in it and those words will already have significance to the
If I were to ask you what is art, and how can one find it? What would you say? Well if it were me being asked those question, I would simply say that art to me is a form of a picture; a visual painting or model of some design and it could be found all among us. You may define it differently only because art could be defined in many ways. I could simply say that art to me is a form of a picture; a visual painting or model of some design. Well according to an article written by Shelley Esaak, an art history expert she mentioned that art has a way of stimulating different parts of our brains to make us laugh or incite us to riot, with a whole gamut of emotions in between. She also mentioned that art gives us a way to be creative and express ourselves. [1]
Kiefer points out in her essay that when children vocalize what they think about a story and the pictures, it helps them to become more cognitive thinkers. She also stated that “the children I observed seemed to be intent on making meaning regarding the picture books …” (Kiefer 66). I, too, can see this when I am ...
I feel that having full color illustrations in texts helps children when they are reading because they can read the words that are on the page and then they can look at the picture to help clarify and explain what was being explained to them in writing. By having full-color illustrations a child does not have to imagine what the color of something is in a picture, it is already there for them to enjoy and interpret. I also never realized that picture books are used for both children and adults and in every genre of literature, but know that I think about it when an adult is trying to put together a piece of furniture there are diagrams with instructions that way after reading the instructions you can see exactly what they are talking about. For example, in The Tale of Peter Rabbit and Where The Wild Things Are every page in these stories has a full-color illustration either above the words or the picture will be on the page next to the words. In The Tale of Peter Rabbit by Beatrix Potter on page 15, it states, Next to the words is a picture of a rabbit, holding an umbrella and a basket in her hand, which is very important when a child is reading this story because the picture will help a child to have a better understanding of what is being said, especially if a child doesn’t know what an umbrella or a basket is, they can look at the picture. In the story Where The Wild Things Are by Maurice Sendak there are illustrations as well that correspond to what has been written. For example, in the book it states, “The night Max wore his wolf suit and made mischief of one kind” (Sendak). After a child reads the writing, they can then look at the illustration to that Max is wearing a wolf suit and that in the picture it looks like
Picture books are books in which both words and illustrations are essential to the story’s meaning (Brown, Tomlinson,1996, Pg.50). There are so many different kinds of children’s books. There are books for every age and every reading level. There are many elements that go into picture books such as line and spacing, color and light, space and perspective, texture, composition and artistic media. Picture books are an essential learning element in today’s classroom.
Art and illustrations play a very important part in children's literature. A story with bad illustrations that don’t go with the text can really hinder a child’s ability to comprehend and pay attention to the book. There are many children books out that have many qualities in their illustrations that are crucial. Some books, like Last Stop On The Market, Monsters Love Underpants, Duncan the Story Dragon, and The Rain Came Down possess these qualities like color, value, character development, and lines that help make them very entertaining to children.
In the legal issue titled Employment discrimination, it describes a situation where abc corporation decides to respond to what it sees as a moral obligation to correct for past discrimination by adjusting pay differences among its employee.

Employees were treated unfair, Abc company can no longer be trusted as a good work ethic company, they have a bad reputation for discrimination and there might be a likelihood the company will go out of business due to its actions.
A children book is an extremely substantial and significant form of literature. It educates, affects and amuses at the same time. Although its main audience are the small children, the majority of adults in fact enjoy this type of literature as much as children do. This can be explained by the capacity of children literature to deal with great themes and topics that are too large for adult fiction. (Philip Pullman) For its great importance, the style and technique by which it is produced, is a major concern for both of the authors and critics. One technique has a particular impact in the children book, that is to say, illustration. Bearing the visual nature of children in mind, we understand that their books should be delivered with
1.Two things i feel comfortable doing in my future classroom to support the concept of aesthetics for children would be helping the kids become aware of art in their everyday lives and taking children on walking trips to discover and observe the colors, shapes, and textures in trees, plants, clouds, buildings and vehicles. Resources that i would want to use for discovering and observing nature would be making a bulletin board about different types of forests, such as a tropical forest. A background that i would use for helping kids become more aware of art in their everyday life would be having a art wall to hang their art projects from the past and having art shows for parents to see.
Art extends and expands our visual ideas. When artist display their visual ideas, often people see them as shocking, and often do not grasp their concept. However with time their message is seen and they are accepted by all. Artists show us new ways to see new concepts, or familiar things. Also how to interpret new situations, and events using various kinds of visual mediums.
Not only can art help improve a kids education over all, having it taught as a regular part of the curriculum helps children learn to express themselves in a way that is safe and promotes problem solving.

* Children can learn thru any kind of art many thinks, will help them in their social and emotional skill, that children feel relax and be more patience with something they like, children feel successful that they can do a lot, and at the same time children can express their feelings.

A child’s drawing can tell so much about what they are thinking and feeling about their surroundings. They see things differently from adults and teens because when they are drawing or doing some sort of art they are not told that it is a “bad picture” or what ever they are doing is “not right.” They don’t have a limit upon their thoughts and ideas, but when they grow up, they do. Starting from the first day of school, they are taught about the wrong things and the right things. As we grow older there are more classes that have right and wrong answers to a question like, for example, math.
As children’s literature matured, so did the books. Illustrations were first made with woodcuts or on wood blocks that were colored by hand. By the late 1800s, printing had evolved and illustrations became mor...
The Creative Arts play a significant role in early childhood education as it provides children with a diverse range of skills to enhance their learning and development to meet the needs of succeeding in the 21st century.

Firstly, children’s cognitive development is greatly enhanced through visual arts. In order for children to produce art, they have to think of an idea, an experience or feeling and construct symbols to express what they know (Isbell & Raines, 2007). Exploration of art materials help children build a knowledge of their physical properties which supports decision-making, evaluation and problem-solving (Edwards, 2010). Moreover, children will have many opportunities to work together in small groups and will then learn to value others’ ideas (Isbell & Exelby, 2001). Since visual arts is a form of self-expression, children can express their feelings through artworks and hence, learn emotional regulation. Small muscle development occurs when children cut, paste, draw and paint while large muscles develop through activities such as creating a large mural (Isbell & Raines, 2007). Therefore, visual arts enhances children’s development in all
